TV Insider has learned that Tony Award-winner Betty Buckley (Pretty Little Liars, The Leftovers) has joined the cast of Supergirl season two as the "honest, but stubborn" Patricia Arias, the adoptive mother of Samantha Arias (Odette Annable), a.k.a. Reign!
The CW's character description reveals that her relationship with her daughter will be a little frosty when we meet them as the pair have been estranged for several years since Sam became a teen mom. Also, it looks like she'll be very much aware of her daughter's extraterrestrial and undoubtedly lethal origins. "Their relationship is made all the more complex by the secrets Patricia holds."
Buckley will make her debut in episode seven, which is titled "Wake Up."

DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF YOU - Kara (Melissa Benoist) deals with the loss of Mon-El (Chris Wood) by focusing all her energy on being Supergirl and the mysterious new threat against National City.

At the DEO, Kara works for J’onn J’onzz, the Martian Manhunter, and alongside her sister, Alex, and best friend, Winn Schott. Also in Kara’s life are James Olsen, a photo journalist who moonlights as Guardian, a masked vigilante, Lena Luthor, and Mon-El of Daxam, whose planet was ravaged by Krypton’s destruction.
